Answer:

$0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

It is 16 cents because a singular jar of caramel sauce is modeled by 6.4/2=3.2 then you multiply 1/20 x 3.2 and you get 0.16, so it costs 16 cents in caramel sauce to make one banana.

Final answer:

The cost of the caramel sauce on one banana split is $0.16.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the cost of caramel sauce for one banana split, we need to divide the total cost of 2 containers of caramel sauce by the number of banana splits it can make.

Given that one container makes 20 banana splits, the total cost is $6.40 for 2 containers.

To find the cost per banana split, we divide the total cost by the number of banana splits: $6.40 ÷ 40 = $0.16 per banana split.

Therefore, the cost of the caramel sauce on one banana split is $0.16.
